THE HISTORY OF A LAMP COMPANY

Advertisements in The Dragon

The advertisements shown on this page appeared in The Dragon, the annual publication of the Bangs Independent School District. Texans Incorporated advertised in the Dragon from the beginning, placing ads that usually included a photo of the factory or its products. Annuals from the years 1953 through '56, and 1960, are represented here. I would appreciate hearing from anyone that has '57 through '59 or any post-'60 annuals that include a Texans Incorporated advertisement.

From the 1953 Dragon.

One of two ads for the lamp factory that appeared in the '54 annual, this one promoting Mar-Lita.

Another from '54, this one advertising Texans Inc.

This one appeared in the Dragon in 1955.

1956.

This ad appeared in 1960, and includes a lamp designed by Howard Kron.
